RWKHUWKDQWKRVHVSHFLÀHGLQWKLVGRFXPHQWDWLRQ
may result in exposure to shock, electrical
hazards and/or mechanical hazards.
Read and follow these instructions when
connecting and using your computer monitor.
Operation
 Please Keep the monitor out of direct
sunlight, very strong bright lights and away
from any other heat source. Lengthy
exposure to this type of environment may
result in discoloration and damage to the
monitor.
 Remove any object that could fall into
ventilation holes or prevent proper cooling
of the monitor’s electronics.
 Do not block the ventilation holes on the
cabinet.
 When positioning the monitor, make
sure the power plug and outlet are easily
accessible.
 If turning off the monitor by detaching the
power cable or DC power cord, wait for 6
seconds before attaching the power cable
or DC power cord for normal operation.
 Please use approved power cord provided
by Philips all the time. If your power cord

 To protect your monitor from possible
damage, do not put excessive pressure
on the LCD panel. When moving your
monitor, grasp the frame to lift; do not lift
the monitor by placing your hand or fingers
on the LCD panel.
 Unplug the monitor if you are not going to
use it for an extensive period of time.
 Unplug the monitor if you need to clean it
with a slightly damp cloth. The screen may
be wiped with a dry cloth when the power
is off. However, never use organic solvent,
such as, alcohol, or ammonia-based liquids
to clean your monitor.

t
 Temperature: 0-40°C 32-95°F
 Humidity: 20-80% RH
Important information for Burn-in/Ghost
image
 Always activate a moving screen saver
program when you leave your monitor
unattended. Always activate a periodic
screen refresh application if your monitor
will display unchanging static content.
Uninterrupted display of still or static
images over an extended period may cause
“burn in”, also known as “after-imaging” or
“ghost imaging”, on your screen.
 “Burn-in”, “after-imaging”, or “ghost imaging”
is a well-known phenomenon in LCD panel
technology. In most cases, the “burned in”
or “after-imaging” or “ghost imaging” will
disappear gradually over a period of time
after the power has been switched off.
Warning
Failure to activate a screen saver, or a periodic
screen refresh application may result in severe
“burn-in” or “after-image” or “ghost image”
symptoms that will not disappear and cannot be
repaired. The damage mentioned above is not
covered under your warranty.
Service
 The casing cover should be opened only by
qualified service personnel.
 If there is any need for any document for
repair or integration, please contact with
your local service center. (please refer to
the chapter of “Consumer Information
&HQWHUµ
 For transportation information, please refer
to “Technical Specifications”.
 Do not leave your monitor in a car/trunk
under direct sun light.
Note
Consult a service technician if the monitor
does not operate normally, or you are not sure
what procedure to take when the operating
instructions given in this manual have been
followed.
